Historic Italian Art Academy Gets Modern Wireless Internet Solution

The Academy of Fine Arts of Bologna (Academy Belle Arti di Bologna) has educated some of Italy’s most revered artists over its more than 400-year history. Today the school is housed in three buildings of a nearly 300-year-old church. Until recently, this historic institution was still living in the past when it came to Internet connectivity. With the help of ZyXEL equipment, a solution was devised that provided wireless access to the academy’s more than 1,700 students and staff, as well as visitors. Now everyone working, studying, or visiting the institution can easily and safely access the Internet from any of the school’s three main buildings.
